INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION
INSTALL THE NANO-SIM CARD (OPTIONAL)
- Ensure the receiver is turned off.
- Remove the cover on the bottom of the receiver to access the SIM card slot.
- Insert the nano-SIM card.
- Reattach the cover over the SIM card slot.
- After completing the activation in Step 3, the nano‑SIM card can be enabled.
- . Select LTE Modem. Enter the APN and enable.
CHARGE THE INTERNAL BATTERY
- Connect the USB-C PD power adapter (P/N 121928‑01) and cable (P/N 121920-01) to the USB-C port on the receiver.
- The receiver display shows the current charge status.
- It takes up to 5.5 hours to fully charge the battery.
When the R750 receiver with the UHF radio is transmitting at 2 W, the battery lasts for about 4 hours at room temperature.
Adding a USB-PD powerpack (30,000 mAh) to a fully charged internal battery provides about 13.9 hours of power.
TIP – Alternatively, use the Trimble power supply (P/N 107000) with a DB26 adapter (e.g. P/N 57168) or a lemo cable with DC input (e.g. P/N 59044-10 or 59044) to charge the internal battery.
